Truly Frightening!

Rating: 10/10 (5 June 2006)

28 Days Later effectively does what a film of it's genre should do - scare the crap out of you! What makes is so effective is that it takes place in surroundings that are familiar - Downtown London, surrounding suburban towns. Just the thought of something like "rage" actually happening is very terrifying. I think it's also good that no big name stars are in the film. Sometimes big names can be a distraction. With all the talk about avian flu, and other pandemics, rage doesn't seem to far fetched. That in itself, makes this film frightening, indeed. You could imagine this scenario taking place anywhere in the world. However, London seems the most plausible due to the fact that it is the capital city of an island. I would love to see a sequel!
